The new flexible solar cell can be used on surfaces that could not normally stand the weight of solar panels, creating ...

UNSW researchers have achieved a world record energy conversion efficiency of 13.2% for high-bandgap kesterite (CZTS) solar cells with a laboratory scale cell that had been enhanced with hydrogen.

Perovskite solar cells are highly efficient and low cost in production. However, they still lack stability over the decades under real weather conditions. An international research collaboration has ...

Engineers at Australia’s University of New South Wales (UNSW) have claimed to have achieved a new world record for photovoltaic efficiency using high-bandgap kesterite solar cells (CZTS).

An international team has utilized an n-type polymeric additive to stabilize C60 molecules for use in inverted perovskite PV ...

Photovoltaics (PVs), devices that can convert sunlight into electrical power, are becoming increasingly widespread and more people worldwide are now relying on them to generate electricity. Renewable ...

Kesterite is a naturally occurring mineral composed of copper, zinc, tin, and sulfur (CZTS). It has long been recognized for its potential in solar cell applications. It is abundant, non-toxic ...

And while today’s silicon-based solar panels are ... formed into a complex crystal structure called perovskite which can be made into solar cells far thinner than a human hair.
